FAQPage Schema
What is a vector database used for in AI applications?▼

A vector database stores embeddings and metadata to enable fast semantic search for AI applications, supporting RAG pipelines, document retrieval, and memory-enabled AI systems.

How do I store embeddings and metadata for semantic search?▼

You can store embeddings and metadata for semantic search using a simple four-function API to create or load local collections, enabling fast vector and full-text retrieval.

Can I self-host a vector database for RAG pipelines in production?▼

Yes, you can self-host an open-source vector database for RAG pipelines that scales seamlessly from local notebooks to production environments without external dependencies.

What's the best way to perform document retrieval with metadata filtering?▼

The best way to perform document retrieval with metadata filtering is using an open-source vector database that natively supports storing metadata alongside vectors for filtered semantic search.

Do I need any external dependencies to run a local vector database?▼

No, you do not need external dependencies to run this local vector database, as it operates independently to store embeddings and perform semantic search within your notebooks or production setup.
